THE US government secretly advised Scottish ministers it would be "far preferable" to free the Lockerbie bomber than jail him in Libya.

Correspondence obtained by The Sunday Times reveals the Obama administration considered compassionate release more palatable than locking up Abdel Baset al-Megrahi in a Libyan prison.

“not only gave the Okay but probably helped orchestrate this travesty”

This Commander in Puke is an insult to everything American. The terrorist murderer of hundreds of innocent Americans gets let out of jail on order from Obama.

No wonder they are building a masque on the ruins of the Twin Towers. Under this administration Jihad is on the march!

Sounds like you had a good time, too! I’d do it all again in a second.

Loved every minute of it except those times when the bad guys reminded us that it was a war zone and tried to shoot holes in me and my airplane as we were drilling holes in the sky trying to send them to see their maker.....can you imagine.....

>> No, the solution is to take over the existing Republican party and that process is already well underway.

Take over, or take back.

The candy-assed lamestream pubs won’t even give this a whimper. All they care about is the money. National security means nothing to them, the constitution means nothing to them, and ethics and morality mean nothing to them. Like rats, they will act in the interest of themselves, their power, and their pocketbooks, the rest of us be damned.

There’s one surefire way to get this natl coverage. A certain someone has to tween something about it(preferably with the word refudiate mentoined as well), post a facebook message about it, write it on her hand and have it photographed, something. For whatever the reason the media can’t stay away from reporting anything Palin-related. If she facebooks.tweets something about this, it would definitely be top news. Maybe releasing a video. Maye tie it in to the Ground Zero Mosque. But if it needs natl coverage, there’s one definite way to make sure it receives it.

For all the talk about a war within the GOP, the real battle is with the Dems as the Clinton Machine takes on Obama’s (and this time I think they are much more prepared). Get your popcorn ready, it’s gonna be good!!!

I think Evan Bayh is doing cartwheels tonight.

I think if Hillary waits until 2014 it might be a tad too late.

I know conservatives like to believe in this all powerful Clinton machine that always seems to come out on top. Ther is no machine. If Hillary and Bill and the rest of them had any machine, they never would have lost to Obama in the first place. It makes no sense that they’d have all this plotting and daring and not be able to take him out when it really mattered,, when her getting the WH was all on the line.

If Hillary wants to use this to her advantage she should resign immediately, and primary Obama in 2012. She’d beat him easily.
